Before using the appliance
Rating plate
This is situated on the front frame of
the appliance and can be seen upon
opening the door. Alternatively the
rating plate may also be found on the
back or top of some models (where
applicable).
The appliance must be protected by
a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker.
The rating of the appliance is given
on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from
the appliance as this may invalidate the
guarantee.
Preparing to use your appliance
Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with
a soft cloth using hot soapy water.
Wash the furniture before use.
We suggest that you run the oven(s)
and grill for 10 – 15 minutes at
maximum temperature, to burn off any
residue from their surfaces. Accessible
parts may become hotter than in
normal use. Children should be kept
away. During this period an odour may
be emitted, it is therefore advisable to
open a window for ventilation.
The cooling fan for the controls
The cooling fan comes on immediately
when the grill is switched on and after a
short time when the oven is in use. It
may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has
cooled.
During the initial period the cooling
fan may turn on and off, this is quite
normal.
Always allow the cooling fan to
cool the appliance down before
switching off at the wall prior to
carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
Control panel indicator neon(s)
The indicator neon will operate when
the grill (where applicable) or oven(s) is
switched on. The indicator neon will
glow. It may turn on and off during use
to show that the setting is being
maintained. If the neon does not
operate as the instructions indicate the
controls have been incorrectly set.
Return all controls to zero and reset
following the instructions for the
required setting.
Condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam
similar to a boiling kettle. The vents
allow some of this steam to escape.
However, always stand back from the
appliance when opening the door(s) to
allow any build up of steam or heat to
release.
If the steam comes into contact with
a cool surface on the outside of the
appliance, e.g. a trim, it will condense
and produce water droplets. This is
quite normal and is not caused by a
fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly
wipe away condensation and foodstuff
from surfaces.

For your safety wall coverings at the
rear of the appliance should be
securely fixed to the wall.
Cookware
Baking trays, dishes etc., should not be
placed directly against the grid
covering the fan at the back of the
oven.
Do not use baking trays larger than
30cm x 35cm (12” x 14”) as they will
restrict the circulation of heat and may
affect performance.

furniture have been supplied with the

Automatic cooking
It is advisable to leave food in the oven
for as short a time as possible before
automatic cooking. Always ensure
commercially prepared food is well within
its use by date and that home prepared
food is fresh and of good quality.
When cooking is complete, do not
leave food to stand in the oven, but
remove and cool it quickly if the food is
not to be consumed immediately.
Always ensure food in the oven has
been covered before cooking if it is not
possible to remove food immediately
after cooking.

This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the
fan in operation. It is particularly suitable for dishes, which require
extra base browning such as pies, quiches and flans. Gratin's,
lasagne and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well
in the conventional oven. For best results cook on one level.
The fan oven is particularly suitable for cooking larger quantities of
food.
Cooking is more gentle; therefore food generally takes a little longer
to cook when Turbo grilling compared with conventional grilling. One
of the advantages is that larger quantities can be cooked at the same
time.
Turbo grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and
allows you to grill with the oven door closed. With the exception of
toast and rare steaks you can Turbo grill all the foods you would
normally cook under a conventional grill.
This top oven function defrosts most foods faster than more
conventional methods. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen
foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes
covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones, etc.

Top oven conventional cooking
The top oven is the smaller of the two
ovens. It is heated by elements in the
top and bottom of the oven. It is
designed for cooking smaller quantities
of food. It gives especially good results
if used to cook fruitcakes, sweets and
savoury flans or quiche.
The top oven is ideal for use as a
warming compartment. It can be used
to warm dishes and keep food hot.
